Warning - blog owner is old and cranky and if you leave a comment he will follow you back to your place and return comment which usually leads to drama and debate, so if your blog is particularly Jesus / kitty / kid-intensive, you may want to reconsider.

You like me! You really like me!

Or you really hate me and you spend your entire day at the office clicking "Refresh" in the hopes that you'll exceed the bandwidth on my personal web site account with BellSouth (my ISP). Either way, for the first time since I began blogging in July of 2004, my badwidth has been exceeded; that's why my header and profile pics no longer show. So, two things - recommend a hosting service to me (I'm giving walagata a trial and am already unimpressed) and visit my Xanga blog to give me some feedback on the next header image I use. I don't care if you post there or here or send me an e-mail, but if you ignore me completely I will use my voodou powers to cause bad things to happen to you. Note - you're not missing anything by not knowing about my Xanga blog since I don't post anything original there. I just signed up so I could comment on some other e-pals' blogs, then I started taking advantage of the available web space to post some pics. Xanga seems pretty reliable, so I might just upgrade my account to one of the premium packages and use it for web hosting.

walagata's lame, especially now that you have to pay for services. I'd suggest filelodge.They have 500 MB of storage, and supposedly unlimited bandwith. It hasn't gone out on me yet, so I'll assume that's true for now.

As for header images, I think 3, 12, 13, and 16 would work well, even though my personal favorite is probaby 9.

lor - I agree about walagata - my trial period lasted less than a day before I ditched them.

fatty - if your blog is slow loading, maybe you need to adjust the archive settings so there aren't so many posts on the main page.

fatty - stars?

tigerkiss - I can probably find a free service, but I don't mind paying if they're reliable and going to be in business for awhile. I thought about upgrading my BS account since you know the phone company is going to last awhile, but a) they're not reliable, b) they tend to change settings and URL's without warning, and c) the next step up costs $17 a month and gives you less than Xanga does for free.

mel - thanks, but I notice nobody is actually voting.

messiah - I thought my writing was all about "nothing screams evil like japanese sex kitten". Although I do wonder if I'll be giving the wrong impression by heading my page with girly anime.

nobius - thanks, but I think I'll stick with a service that can handle anything in case I want to post audio death threats.
